Does someone know how much rpm the original rods hold. I was thinking to build a 9000rpm N/A engine with wossner pistons and som psyco cams.

Do i need to change the rods?

get some forged conrods asap, its not worth the risk i got a high comp engine limited to 8200 rpm, and its on forged conrods ( watch out for sizes on the gugeon pin fitment as my rods had to be re-bushed original sizes were too big.
